The Yeshiva.net
So, we're in the middle of the mind
culture.
Tough finish on tests.
By the Rebbe Rashab.
And we're holding if you'd base.
Page 234. So, after a whole long
discussion
about
unity
versus disunity,
peace versus strife,
connection versus
disassociation and disconnection.
And the various causes for it.
So, he now continues to go yet to a
deeper layer.
Mhm.
You'd base. We need a cashier doer.
I shall be avoided yes and be the funny
avoided.
Generally, in serving Hashem, there's
two different streams, two different
models or two different types
categories.
I love the way that the same
One element of our way that Hashem, the
first one is
with a sense of joy, ecstasy.
Behind you.
What brings this type of a way that?
Sure, masculine is burning hatred with
the loss of Hashem.
When a person
learns
and understands and contemplates
meditates
on the goodness of Hashem. The goodness
of Hashem means the infinity.
The infinite reality of Hashem.
Which
is always connected to the person
because it's infinite.
So, it's in you. It's part of you. It's
who you are.
That produces
the result of that is there's a
positivity in a person's life and
there's a positivity in a person's of a
day to Hashem.
You experience the closeness, the
intimacy, the oneness.
And he speaks more specifically. He
ain't going to eat some good lasagna.
Bring in a burrito yes, may I in.
Whether it's when you focus even just on
create the creation
and the creation is called the Yesh
Me'ayin, something from nothing
commission is by the Makamacha.
The Lev is much at some Indian Briah
Yesh Me'ayin no Indian Nifla Sha'ein Lo
Adam Shumsira Kla'l commission is by the
Makamacha.
First of all
just focusing
on the Etzem Briah, the the fact
not to take the world for granted, not
to take your body for granted, not to
take life for granted
not to take existence for granted
to appreciate just the Etzem Indian of
Briah Yesh Me'ayin what happened with
creation
he said is it's Nifla'ot, it's something
extraordinary.
We don't even have a Tziur for it. We
don't have a from cuz we don't have an
example for it.
It's so beyond. We have metaphors for a
lot of things. We all create things. We
all develop things, but nothing even
comes close to the Nekudah of a Briah of
a creation Yesh Me'ayin the way the
world happened and continues to happen.
Like we say Hadash Betuvo V'chol Yom
Tamid.
But sometimes a thing could be right in
front of your eyes, but you don't notice
it. Yeah?
Spoke of Shabbos about breathing for
example, right?
We all breathe and we don't stop
breathing Baruch Hashem.
It's essential to life.
But how many people focus on it? How
many people notice it? You take it Of
course you inhale and you exhale.
But there's a whole the whole system of
thought that actually focuses
on a person's breath. Says in Medrash
Kol Han'shamah
Tehalel Y-K, the end of Tehillim every
soul praises Hashem. So the Medrash says
Al Kol Neshamah Neshamah.
Each breath
really warrants another Halel, another
form of praise. Kol Neshamah Neshamah's
Neshamah. Neshamah means soul, but it
comes to the word breath, Neshamah.
Vayipach B'apav Nishmas Chaim, a breath
of life.
So Kol Neshamah really every breath
is is is something special. Every
breath.
The whole mechanism, every Nikuda in
creation, and the whole the very the
very experience of creation.
Mhm.
Somebody once came to his mentor and he
said he's very lonely. Said, "Why are
you so lonely?"
He said, "There's nobody in the world
who thinks about me. Nobody.
I'm completely isolated, alone in my
pain, alone in my isolation. Nobody and
nothing even thinks about me."
So, he says, "Wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait. Before we go further,
you have approximately 150
billion white blood cells.
And if there's even a scratch on your
finger,
right? If you take a microscope and see
what happens, a scratch in your finger,
billions of white blood cells
rush over to the place of the emergency
to see what they can do. And 24 hours a
day they stand on guard like a police
force. But, it's the most developed
police force in the world. It's the most
developed military in the world. The
white blood cells, their job is to
protect you from bacterias, from
infections, from toxins, from viruses,
from any invader that comes in, inside
or outside, to make trouble in the body.
And they all rush in the billions, and
they're organized. Who does what? So, he
says, "Don't say nobody. Nobody thinks
about you. There's billions of little
people that 24 hours a day they don't
stop thinking about you."
Every Nikuda in the Briah is another
pella. And then you talk about the Etzem
Briah Yesh Meayin,
the Etzem Briah Yesh Meayin, he says,
"That itself
is is extraordinary.
Oitz oiz, yesh b'zeh playus.
If you get more intricate, yesh b'zeh
playus, this extraordinary playus.
Playus means wonders.
D'yeduah d'briah yesh meayin b'chinus
richuk k'arach.
On one hand, the creation something from
nothing,
so the creator and the created
experience each other in a in a state
that's called the
Rijo Kadesh. Means
that the yesh does not feel or sense the
iron.
Cuz he wouldn't be able to be a yesh.
He's going to explain the iron of all of
the yesh may iron.
In works of Jewish philosophy
there's two terms, iron of all of all
and yesh may iron.
Iron of all of all means
iron is a cause and all of all is an
effect. And the all of all
comes from the iron. For example, an
apple tree from an apple seed.
The seed is called the iron. You plant
the seed
and that develops into the all of all,
which is the apple tree and everything
that comes with the tree. Everything in
our world has an iron. I come from my
mother and my father. There's the egg
pollinated by the seed and that creates
an embryo.
A fetus. So, the fetus is the all of all
and the egg of mommy and the seed of
tatty is the iron. The same is true
everything in the world. This table
wasn't created in a vacuum. This table
is a result from what we call an
antecedent. That's called the iron and
the offspring, the child, the creation
of the iron is called the all of all.
Then there's something called briah yesh
may iron. Briah yesh may iron is very
different. Briah yesh may iron means
something from nothing.
Why is it called from nothing? The
creator is not nothing.
The answer is because
the yesh
doesn't experience itself as an
evolution. Iron of all of all
essentially is evolutionary.
The all of all comes from the iron. It
emerges from the iron.
But when say yesh may iron, something
from nothing yeah.
The yesh doesn't identify its source. It
doesn't identify its marker. The
perspective of the yesh, where do I come
from?
It's nothing. The yesh doesn't see
itself as a development of its source.
The source is completely eclipsed,
completely concealed. Yeah? If you'll
ask the rock, "Who made you?"
"As far as I'm concerned, I was always
here." Even a person, "I know that I
have come from a father and a mother."
But yesh me'ayin, the yesh doesn't
identify that it's a development from
the ayin. So, it calls it ayin. It's
like it doesn't exist in my world. He
says,
ila v'alul b'chinat hashpa'ah b'kirov.
Ila v'alul, the flow is close.
She'ila mislabesh b'ha'alul v'ha'alul
margish es ilusa.
The ila
is manifested, it's enclosed in the
alul, and therefore the alul feels, it
experiences the antecedent, the source
of it.
V'lachein ha'alul b'erech ha'ila, and
that's why the two are always relative
to each other. They're never completely
remote from the seed of an apple tree,
you're never going to have an orange
tree.
And from the egg of a human being,
you're not going to have a horse.
And from the egg of a horse, you're not
going to have a hippopotamus
or a rhinoceros. Why?
Because the alul is a reflection of the
ila, it's a continuum of the ila.
The ila comes into the alul, and the
alul mirrors and reflects the alul, and
therefore there's a closeness between
them. They're They're It's a It's a
continuation.
V'lachein alul b'erech ila, mashkeel
b'sachvas yesh me'ayin.
The Ohr HaShamayim is the ultimate ila,
but it's called yesh me'ayin, something
from nothing. She'isavus hu b'ein arech.
That which is created does not mirror
and reflect and say, "I am divine." It's
b'ein arech. B'ein arech means
completely in a way that you don't
experience in the bri'ah, the boreh.
V'im kein, hu hashpa'ah b'chinat
s'reecha arech.
So, even though there's a hashpa'ah,
there's a flow,
just like the ila creates the alul, the
ayin is the source for the yesh, but
it's b'chinat s'reecha arech.
But a sense of infinite remoteness.
The boyde, the creator, is concealed in
the created being.
It's not manifested and enclothed and
expressed in a revealed conscious way
like the alul in the ilo.
The apple tree, it's very clear where it
comes from. The table, it's clear where
it comes from. Where it comes from. Any
silver candelabra, silver goblet that
comes from the silver.
And the silver,
everything has its il ilo.
And you can identify. You can say this
alul comes from this ilo which comes
from this ilo and you can always trace
it back. In other words, there's a
transition and it's relative. It's a
clear evolution from level to level to
level.
Yesh meayin is like a complete gulf.
Even though the entire existence of the
yesh only comes from the ayin. So why is
it called ayin? Because in the world of
the yesh, there's no reference to the
ayin. It's like there's an infinite
gulf.
In this hashpa, the hashpa is in a way
that the source is completely concealed.
In our world, yeah, you could walk
around and be an atheist and get a Nobel
Prize.
Right? You could consider yourself very
intelligent person. You could be praised
by your colleague scientists. Why?
Because the yesh,
if you use your mind open, unbiased,
there's proofs. But in the experience of
the yesh, the intuition of the yesh, you
don't sense,
you don't identify
its divine source.
The nefesh elokis is is from the world
of the ayin, yeah.
With the nefesh elokis.
In the chonomi with the nefesh elokis, a
person experiences. But we're saying
with the yesh, the physical yesh of the
world,
it's it's experiences completely remote,
infinitely remote, what's called Kah
Erech from the mocker. Because the boy
day
is is is concealed
in the Nivre.
By all Elon, all he says the all is
margish the Elon. The all The all feels
the Elon.
The yesh doesn't experience the eye and
it's counterintuitive. Intuitively, the
yesh is kind of Sakanaia.
So the expression that this world feels
it's awesome at Sumosa. It's existence
comes from itself.
You need a proofs and you could bring
proofs. There's a lot of proofs. But the
experience of the yesh is that it's
yesh.
The gum, but there's something else.
You need to say that the divine energy
that creates the world is always inside
the created being. By your day Zoba
Matisyahu yesh and that's why it's a
yesh. You may
If the divine energy would depart from
it, wouldn't have a relationship with
it,
it would revert to not and nothingness.
Cuz the reality of the yesh is something
new.
And anything that's really new, you have
to constantly renew it because if not,
the new reality is going to revert back
to its natural state.
The natural state
of nothingness is nothingness.
In nothingness, you don't have the
potentiality
for somethingness. So if you're creating
something completely new,
so what happens?
You have to keep on creating it because
if you don't keep on creating it, it's
going to revert back to its natural
reality. What's its natural reality? Eye
and nothingness.
So therefore, the moment there is his as
no newness it goes back to iron the
office. So it has to be recreated every
single moment because it's something
from nothing. If it would really exist
on its own so you don't have to recreate
it. You can reveal it.
But since it's yesh may iron momish
so therefore if you cease creating it
for one moment it goes back
to its default mode. It's default mode
is iron. He
can't compare this to ill of all.
Can I for example if a carpenter takes a
piece of wood and turns it into a table
he doesn't have to recreate a table.
An artist takes colors pigment canvas
makes a painting he doesn't have to
recreate it.
Even after he's gone the painting hangs
on the wall and people can enjoy it
hundreds of even thousands of years
later.
Just as they can a piece of
piece of carpentry the same is true with
a goldsmith or a silversmith. Why?
That's all ill of all.
Cuz he wasn't the cover or something he
didn't create yesh may iron. The
carpenter took wood wood has the
potential to be shaped in many different
shapes and he brought out one shape.
But that's not something that's yesh may
iron something from nothing. He brought
out a pre-existing potential. So
therefore even after the one who created
it who created this table is gone it
still exists because exists independent
of the creator. That's ill of all.
The ill revealed the potential that
exist inside of it to bring out the all.
The original seed that created the apple
tree the seed can be gone the apple tree
is here.
Because microscopically that seed has
the whole potential of the apple tree.
It just has to be developed. The same is
true with every ill of all even after
the ill is gone
and it's not recreating the all the all
still exist because it has an
independent existence even though it
needed it needed the source to bring it
out to to bring out its potential.
Yesh Mayan is different. Yesh Mayan
The the iron didn't bring out
something pre-existing. It's a new
creation. It's a double hardash. It's a
new creation. On its own
it's iron, it's nothingness. So, why is
it here? It's here because the body
brought it into being. The moment he
doesn't bring it into being, it goes
back to what it is. What is it? It's
nothing. So, therefore it needs to be
recreated every single moment unlike ill
of all.
Yeah, a martial for this not a perfect
martial. I once gave it to you.
But but an imperfect metaphor is yeah.
When a person is daydreaming, remember I
gave you a matter. A person is
daydreaming.
You're sitting in a class.
Not this class. But you're sitting in a
class.
And you're a little bored. So, what do
you do? So, the Rebono shel Olam gave us
a beautiful mechanism. Especially people
who spent many years in Yeshiva.
They have it really they really
fine-tuned their skills. Or you spent
many years in sermons, especially you
had a front seat. So, you really have to
fine-tune your skills cuz you couldn't
play with anything. It's called
daydreaming. And daydreams are very
interesting, right? You can really go on
a beautiful journey in your daydream.
And if the class goes for very long,
your daydream skills become refined even
more.
And you go on journeys and you can do
things. You can build companies and
destroy companies. You can travel the
world. You can meet people. You can go
back in history. You can go to the
future, back to the future.
Whatever you willst. You can shop and
the miles you don't have to pay for
anything.
You could go first class. You don't have
to pay. Everything is for free. And it's
very real in your mind. While you're
daydreaming, it's as real as it gets.
You see the people. You can even feel
emotions associated with people, right?
You can get angry in your daydream at
people. You can get jealous, you can get
upset, right? You have full conversa-
You know, you guys know, yeah?
Nobody daydreams here?
Huh?
Because that's somebody who knows him
that you didn't daydream, huh? In the
mirror. Okay. Baruch Hashem.
Uh
Not everybody had such a rosh yeshiva.
What?
Too early in the morning.
So, uh
Right? And and you could be with with
thousands of people and and and you
almost see them in everything.
And then the class is over
and you wake up from the daydream and
all the characters are gone.
The question is, what happened to them?
Why are they gone?
Where are they?
You were in a stadium with 40,000
people. You saw them eating hot dogs
with sauerkraut, kosher, too.
Glatt kosher, what happened to them?
You could have been in an auditorium
with 5,000 people.
Right? You even hear their applause.
What happened to them? They're all gone.
Nobody's here. So, it's a funny
question, right? Because what does it
mean they were here? They were here?
What's the definition of a daydream? The
definition of their existence was
your thoughts of them.
That was the definition. It's not like
they exist independently of you when you
were thinking about them.
If I If I'm thinking about you, even if
I stop thinking about you, you still
exist.
At least let's hope so. Why? Cuz
nobody's going to say the definition of
your existence is me thinking about you.
Unless I'm I'm a real narcissist.
The definition of your existence is your
existence, not me thinking about you.
Which is very helpful in relationships
to know that the definition of your
existence is not me thinking about you.
Definitely it is your existence. I could
think about you. So, I have to actually
tune into your existence. But in the
daydream, it's the opposite. The
definition of their existence is what?
My brain waves.
My neurons firing. That's the That's
their existence. They don't have another
existence outside of my thoughts. So,
when I stop thinking about them, what
happens to them?
THEY CEASE TO EXIST. WHY? WHERE ARE
THEY? And the answer is
They're exactly where they were. The
definition of their existence Let's put
it this way. The material that they're
made up of
What's the material they're made up of?
My machshavahs, my thoughts, my
consciousness. There's no consciousness,
there's no people.
Somebody is standing in front of a
mirror, and there's a beautiful
reflection in the mirror, such a
handsome person.
And then you walk away, and you say,
"What happened?
You were just in the mirror."
What happened? The answer is you weren't
in the mirror. You were reflected in the
mirror.
You go away, what do you want the mirror
should reflect? It's not like the mirror
had you inside of it. The mirror
mirrored you. As long as you're standing
in front of the mirror, it's mirroring
you. The moment you go away from the
mirror,
nothing is left in the mirror, cuz there
was nothing in the mirror but your
reflection.
There was nothing to the people in the
daydream but you reflecting on them.
In other words,
there's something from nothing.
There's something from nothing.
Or nothing from something.
Or nothing from something, yeah.
My thoughts are amazing. My thoughts
created them. Give all the As long as
you're daydreaming, they're here. And
they're here in their full splendor and
glory.
And that's why it's not a good mashal,
cuz it's not really yesh me'ayin.
Because all the people I think about,
it's all images of realities that I
already understood, that I know about.
Your daydreams are attaching themselves
to realities that you're familiar with.
Emotions you're familiar with, people
you're familiar with. It's not a That's
why I said it's it's a far from a
perfect example. On another level, on
the opposite, it's also not a yesh. You
can't touch these people.
When you talk about our world, but it's
it's a shtickel metaphor to say. He says
if Hashem stops creating the world every
moment, it goes back to nothingness.
Why?
And the answer is because the definition
of their existence is what?
The divine creation of it.
The physicality is really an
articulation of divine consciousness.
Every good in the world needs a highest
from every moment.
No, the yesh mayan is from iron.
Right. So that that all of that the tree
and therefore the table needs to be
recreated yesh mayan.
Everything.
So really
in in the deepest levels of reality
and physics is getting closer and closer
the world is divine energy.
The yesh is an articulation of divine
energy. That's what it is.
But it's articulated in a way
that our eyes perceive it as physical
reality and you could completely deny
the creator. That's how remote it is. So
on one hand you have the ultimate
remoteness
and on the other hand you have the
ultimate closeness.
That's the paradox.
The ultimate remoteness because the
world completely perceives itself
as separate.
On the other hand
there's nothing outside of the body in
the world.
In fact, everything is yesh mayan.
Right, but in
the brings out a pre-existing potential.
So the doesn't need the anymore.
The artist doesn't have to stand there
and recreate the piece of art.
Yeah, but the materials
the the the essence of of
of what it's made of is That yeah, that
Hashem's party creates every moment but
not the artist part. Not the carpenter.
What the carpenter does is not yesh
mayan.
Carpenter takes pre-existing material
and he develops it. Beautiful.
So the musician you don't need the
musician to continuously create.
Playing with something that is there, by
the way. Huh?
He puts down the notes.
He puts down the notes, right? And
that's the the music, so to speak. I
mean, it's not the music, but it's the
music on paper.
And a person who can read the music can
go back to that.
But, it comes from his personality.
Right? From his personality, from his
mind, from his heart.
From his experience of the world.
He articulates it.
That's the art of it.
No, the creation every moment is
that we say in the davening.
Everybody agreed to that.
It says in Medrash Tehillim, it's
brought in Tanya from the Baal Shem Tov.
It says in Tehillim, "L'olam Hashem
d'varcha nitzav bashamayim."
In kuf yud tes.
Hashem, your word always stands in
heaven.
So, what does that mean?
So, the Medrash Tehillim says, "D'varcha
yihyu rakia
are always standing in the heavens
recreating them."
It's not that creation happened 5,782
years ago, and God created a beautiful
clock, and the clock goes.
You know, he winded up the clock and
say, "Okay, for 6,000 years the clock
works. The 6,000 years the clock stops."
Where's the clock maker?
Deism, deism. Where's the clock maker?
On vacation.
"L'olam Hashem d'varcha nitzav
bashamayim" is the p'shat that the
d'varcha she'amarti yihyu rakia is
l'olam, it's nitzav. It's so to speak
stands in shamayim recreating it. In
other words, the koach ha'poel has to be
in the nif'al. The koach ha'boireh is in
the bri'ah because the bri'ah is is an
articulation of the koach ha'boireh.
It's not a separate reality. That's what
yesh me'ayin means.
We keep on comparing yesh me'ayin to
iluf alu, so it's hard for for to relate
to it.
Yesh me'ayin something. The word ain is
serious, from nothing.
So, it's something from nothing. What do
you want should exist? Nothing?
It's something from nothing. So, what
exists?
It's an articulation of the creator. The
creator is here. What do you want should
exist? Something that doesn't exist?
You have to think about it a little bit.
But I've got to have a minute.
Says you need his bind in us.
Ilov a olam, the definition of the olam
is not the ilo.
The definition of the olam is not the
boide. The olam has its own source.
You bring it out. The carpenter doesn't
create the wood.
You need the carpenter to shape it, to
bring out its pre-existing potential.
One continuum.
The yesh meain doesn't change after the
carpenter made the table.
Right. I'm talking relative to the
carpenter's work, it's ilov a olam.
That's what he asked, yeah.
So, I use the metaphor of the from the
daydream cuz here you have an example.
If you don't have the creator of the
daydream, you're not going to have the
characters there. Why not?
Why do they all disappear? Where where
did they go Well, did they all go? It
was so interesting, and we have
interesting conversations.
And the rabbi finished his sermon, and
poof.
Poof, they're all gone.
The answer is abracadabra.
Could do.
They were a creation of your thoughts.
The thoughts is there, they're there.
Thought is not there, they're not there.
In other words, something from nothing.
Literally something from nothing. I
don't mean momish nothing, your brain is
not nothing.
But I mean something from nothing, it's
called a figment of imagine figment of
imagination.
So, as long as you're imagining them,
they exist. That's the the material. The
They don't have separate material. What
is the briah?
The briah is ain, something from
nothing.
So, what is it? So, why is there Briah?
The answer is the Koach Ha Boyda.
They don't HAVE A REALITY OUTSIDE of the
creator that creates the reality.
So, as long as I'm creating that Sham is
creating the reality,
that's the reality. If he stops creating
the reality,
there's no reality.
What has to happen that the world should
cease to exist?
Give one-word answer.
What has to happen that the world should
cease to exist?
The answer is nothing.
Nothing. Nothing has to happen.
Nothing.
Huh?
Nothing has to happen. If some something
big has to happen for it to exist. So,
we have here the paradox.
In the all,
the all knows it has a source.
The piece of art almost asks for the
signature.
Right? Who Who made me?
An emotion is going to give an example
of emotions. Emotions are always all.
Emotions are not yesh me and we think
they're yesh me and they're never yesh
me. They come from a certain awareness,
right?
And if you look at the emotional, take
you back to the awareness. It's a
beautiful dogma.
So, all of the
all, the all feels the all points back
to the all.
But doesn't need the all. Yesh me and
the yesh never points to the all the
yesh says, "I am completely on my own."
And yet it's whole identity is the all.
That's the paradox.
It requires deep awareness. And that's
why the relationship between the Briah
and the Boyriah is so intimate.
It's not like
I want to build a relationship with God.
You don't have to build a relationship
with God.
The very existence is divine.
That's what we always say, you are
divine. You don't have to create that.
You don't have to do chuva in order to
become divine. That is existence.
The question is how much I'm aware of
it, how much I'm tuned into it.
So he says, this is a fascinating
paradox. Ilu v'olu the olu feels the ilu
but it doesn't need the ilu.
Yesh m'ayin, there's no yesh outside of
the ayin
and yet it completely denies it.
Yesh is the finite articulation of the
infinite.
If the finite would experience the
infinite, it wouldn't be finite. It
wouldn't be yesh.
For yesh to be yesh, it doesn't point to
the ayin.
It points to itself.
Now the truth is the yesh has the ayin
written all over it
but you have to dig.
You have to be open, you have to
excavate, you have to prove.
You know, like the scientist in Israel
who showed that the helix of the DNA
Have you ever read that? Ru- Professor
Rubenstein.
He noticed, right? That the helix get it
the the DNA gets interlocked. Number 10,
number five, number six, number five.
And he realized
that God signed his name
in the in the in the genome of every
living organism. Yud and hey is credible
credible his gallus.
Right?
But another person reads it and says,
okay, you know, an Israeli professor
fantasizing religion.
Mixing religion into science.
Cuz he decided you know you gave up
again.
I once went in the New York Times a few
years ago.
I forgot what it was. I have to look it
up. But something in physics and there
was some very mystical element in
physics.
Maybe you know what it is and uh
and it turned out that it was about the
number 137.
So they told it to one of the professors
this is oh that's Kabbalah.
Kabbalah
is 137.
So he went crazy.
So again you can dismiss these things as
random.
Cuz the yesh is a yesh. That's how it
is.
So this is the paradox he's addressing.
Ain't no more of all come I say I mean
this. Say this cognition.
You could remain emotional even when you
forgot why you're emotional.
It is.
From say so.
Yeah.
Emotions
Because awareness doesn't create the me
the awareness just directs it.
The me that was there.
That's
say so I mean this is
say so it's awareness.
I mean this is the sensations the
impulses the the body sensation and the
emotions that you experience as a result
of the say so. It's born from the say
so. But it's like a child.
Mommy and daddy bring you into the world
but that's not your source.
Every child has its own pre-existing
source. It came out through the egg. It
came out through the through the sperm
but the soul didn't come from the
consciousness of a child doesn't come
from the father and the mother.
They bring it out. That's why a child
can have things that the parents don't
have.
Even though you have a lot of things
from your parents, but you're not
defined by your parents. It's an awesome
important thing.
doesn't owe its existence doesn't owe
its existence to the
It's thankful to the for bringing it
out, but I don't owe you my existence.
But the doesn't owe its existence to the
The
he says has its own pre-existing
reality. You need awareness to direct
and harness it.
All of our are rooted in primal primal
forces of a person, primal dispositions
of a person. Your
is going to manipulate or direct or
harness how the plays itself out, but
the core of the is rooted in a primal
need for existence.
It's a very very powerful idea. So, the
brings out the but even if the reason is
gone, you're still emotional.
Because the exists independent of the
It always did.
The has its own existence, you
understand? Huh?
It's It's how we interpret reality.
Let's see.
The truth is in a concealed way in every
emotion you can find idea, but it's
going to be concealed.
The moment the
dish
is not here,
there's no existence anymore. Why?
Because the whole existence is the day.
It's an articulation of the That's what
may I and means.
It's not that God had pre-existing
material and he was a good artist and he
fashioned the world and he says, "Okay,
enjoy yourself." That's not the world.
The world is infinite energy. The world
is spiritual energy. It's not divorced.
This was the imek of achdus Hashem that
the Baal Shem Tov especially articulated
that it's not two separate things. It's
all one reality. Ain od milvado.
So, what's the physicality? The
physicality is the way infinity
articulates in itself in a way that my
eyes could make sense of it.
That's what the world is.
The world is the way the ain soif
wants to appeal to my eyes so that we
can have a relationship. That's what it
is.
Somebody sent me
a line by Albert Einstein.
Professor Einstein.
I was actually surprised that this is a
quote from somebody sent to me as a
quote. I have to research if actually he
wrote this.
Cuz you can't always trust WhatsApp.
It's sometimes yesh mayai in WhatsApp.
So, you have to know where it comes
from.
But this is a quote somebody sent me a
few days ago.
Concerning matter, we have all been
wrong.
What we have called matter is energy
whose vibration has been so lowered as
to be perceptible to the senses. Matter
is spirit reduced to points of
visibility. There is no matter.
You hear?
It's energy, but the vibration was
lowered, what we call tzimtzum,
to be perceptible to my senses, to my
nose and my eyes and my hands and my
ears
and my my taste buds.
Matter is spirit reduced to points of
visibility.
This is Albert Einstein. He he's like
gravitational Uh the matter is the
gravitational trap of light.
Yeah.
Because EMC, his equation is matter and
energy are interchangeable. So, that's
in terms of scientific terms energy.
But what's the source of that? Spiritual
energy.
It's just one level higher.
So this is a line by Einstein.
Today I don't know if anybody argues
with this. Max Planck is the father of
one of the fathers of quantum physics,
and he once said, "We used to think that
consciousness is a derivative of matter.
Today we know that matter is a
derivative of consciousness."
So this is all recent decades. If you
open up a Tanya
that was printed in 1797, published in
1796,
1796.
In Shaar Yichud V'Emunah, chapter three,
there's a line, I quote verbatim,
"If our eyes were spiritually
microscopic,
and we would look at the universe, we
would not see matter.
All we would see is divine energy."
Quote, end of quote.
So when you read that a few hundred
years ago, it was like, "Okay."
Faith, you call it faith.
Blind faith.
But today we have issues but said from a
secular perspective, by people who don't
even claim to be believers.
"Physical concepts are free creations of
the human mind and they're not
determined by the external world."
Here's another one. It's all connected.
"A human being experiences himself, his
thoughts and feelings, as something
separated from the rest, a kind of
optical delusion of consciousness. The
delusion is a prison for us, restricting
us to our personal desires and to
affection for a new for a person's
nearest to us. Our task must be to free
ourselves from this prison by widening
our circle of compassion to embrace all
living creatures and the whole of nature
in its beauty. Our separation from each
other is an optical illusion.
When something vibrates, the electrons
of the entire universe resonates with
it. Everything is connected. The
greatest tragedy of human existence is
the illusion of separateness.
Albert Einstein, and finally one more
line, "Reality is merely an illusion,
albeit a very persistent one."
Now, he wasn't crazy.
Today he's crazy. It's not an illusion.
But that's exactly
Huh?
This is the We're learning a mind from
1898. Tough original text.
What What is he What is he saying here?
He's saying, "Yes, intuitively, the yes
is a yes. Nobody's arguing. And in the
name of that yes, there's war and
violence and narcissism and bloodshed
and cruelty and selfishness."
Yeah? No question.
A lot of evil.
Evil.
And a lot of ego, yeah.
The two come together very often, right?
If it's an unhealthy ego.
But at the core of that is the
concealment of the truth.
That's why evil and ego
don't have real substance. They have a
lot of power, but they don't have real
substance, and that's why it can't
persist for eternity.
Why do Jews believe in Messiah?
Cuz they're crazy?
No, because they're scientific.
Bec-
Because reality Reality comes out. It
takes time, but reality The The word
reality means real. How long can you
hide a lie? How long? How long? Anybody
tried?
How long can you conceal a lie? Anybody?
Anybody has experience?
You could for a long time.
But not for eternity.
Everything every everybody has their
day.
Right? Every secret comes out. Every lie
emerges because reality prevails. That
is its nature. Messiah really means
reality prevailing. That's what it
means. It means that the doors of
perception are cleansed.
That the yesh stops lying about itself.
That the curtains get removed. And then
you say ain't no vada. That's cooler.
Make sense of Isaac or not?
Doesn't make sense.
It's fine. The basic made of Silas.
People think that the Jews Jewish
Messiah is some mystical superstitious
thing. One day somebody's going to come
on a donkey. You can say have a day.
Free sushi, free tuition, no crisis. All
is good.
Right?
Mhm.
It's it's it's a primitive idea.
The the sun had an animal
alma mashika. The world was created for
Messiah. It says in madras.
The heart is so you will avoid your
kosher nice home. The local camera up
now I might be in the madrasa. The heart
is so you
and volume.
So so you is Malcolm Sroy me.
And volume is Malcolm Paras. And the
kosher is
is Yovan. The kosher in English
and place a home is Rome. Adam the local
camera up now I might be in the local
Malcolm Messiah.
The rule of Messiah hovers over all of
history. Why?
The definition of Google is to reveal
the olive in the goila. What's that
reveal the olive in the goila?
The curtains open up and the yesh says
who it is.
Albert Einstein says,
there's no matter.
We've all been wrong. Matter is spirit
reduced to the point of visibility. So,
the way Hasidus articulates it is the
whole world has is divine energy, right?
Articulated to the point of visibility.
That my eye should say the table exists.
My eye doesn't deal with infinity.
He wanted That That I wanted that
relationship with me in my physical
being. So, what's Messiah? Just a
revelation of what is. That's it.
And every year science comes closer to
it. At some point,
it's just going to be, you know, you
can't lie to them too too much longer.
How do you know you're learning
something true or somebody's selling you
a boat?
How do you know?
The answer is as follows.
When somebody sells you a boat, every
day that passes, you become more
uncomfortable.
When somebody gives you truth, every day
that passes,
you become more comfortable.
Because as reality moves on,
things progress
and more truth comes out. That's how it
is. Reality pushes to come out.
So, I could block and block and like
psychologically you can repress repress
repress, but your brain pushes to come
out.
So, if I'm selling you a boat, with
every day and week and month passes, you
feel more queasy, more creepy.
You know what I mean? More suspicious,
more weird. Weirded out, they say. You
know what weirded out means?
Some of you might say name it.
When somebody gives truth, every day,
it's like, "Ah, wow. Wow. Wow." Because
you open up more.
Truth, the deeper you go, the The you'll
see how true it is.
The more you remove the the cover-ups,
the more you'll see it, not the less
you'll see it. LIES FOR CAT. THE MORE
you remove the cover-ups, the more you
see it's a lie. The more you get weirded
out by it.
That's why when somebody communicates
truth, they're never afraid.
You could dig, dig, dig. Go deeper, go
deeper. You know, it's like a shidduch,
right?
Call another 100 people, I don't care.
Famous much so that actually gives with
the miraglim, right? You want to try out
the donkey, try out the donkey. If it's
a good donkey, I'm not afraid. Dig, dig,
dig, dig. You can dig. What are you
going to find?
But if I have a thousand million
skeletons to hide,
call him, don't call him, call him, call
him between 3:00 and 4:00, cuz then he's
high.
Don't call him between 5:00 and 6:00,
then he's sober.
You You manipulate, right?
Like in a marriage, if something is
going on in a marriage, you always have
a new story for your wife, right?
Yesterday I went here, then tomorrow I
went there, then the bank slapped me,
and then Biden called me, and then Trump
called me, and then Obama needed me.
Every day there's another story. Lincoln
once said, "If you lie, you need a good
memory."
A nish emes, that's why if you're losing
your memory, just start saying the
truth.
If you're truthful, you don't need a
good memory to remember. I'm not going
to contradict myself. I'm going to say
the truth. But you tough is what I'm
saying.
That's how you know the difference. Emes
every day is to met a met a met.
And you see it also in history. The
Rambam in his time, his books were
burnt.
You know that.
And even after his death,
not by simple people, by big people, the
Rambam's forum were burnt.
Not all of them. The Moreh Nevukhim,
Sefer Hamada, Rabbeinu Yonah.
One of the reasons he wrote Shaarei
Teshuvah was to do teshuvah
for what he did to the Rambam's forum.
The whole Shaarei Teshuva of Rabbeinu
Yonah
was written for his own Teshuva cuz he
was such an opposer to the Rambam.
But 100 years after the Rambam's
passing,
there's nobody today in Jewish history,
almost nobody that's regarded with the
same esteem like the Rambam, especially
in terms of Halakha.
Never mind philosophy.
Right?
The Baal Shem Tov.
There was tremendous opposition to the
Baal Shem Tov, tremendous.
And his students.
But whenever it's emes, emes, the more
time passes
and the lies get emptied out, it comes
out more and more and more and more. So
sometimes there's a person in his
lifetime, right?
There's tremendous glory around them and
then as years pass, it becomes
irrelevant. And something's the exact
opposite.
If it's in a kodesh of emes, so with
every passing year, when more
concealments removed, the emes comes out
more and more and more and then like,
wow.
So you'll know anything that's real,
it's never afraid of time. It's never
afraid of
archaeological excavations.
Because it's true. So
we're good at at the core, it's real.
On the contrary, if it's a lie, you have
to be very careful.
That's why real people,
they're not mispal
from chitzonius dikarubers and this one
and this publicity.
You understand? Why?
What's what's that slogan? Am Yisrael lo
mefached miderech arukah. What do they
say?
I think there's a song, no?
Nobody knows?
Whatever. What's the point?
You don't get this far from fads. Fads
are fads.
You know, you here today,
you gone tomorrow.
So what's Google? Google just means that
the
of the world comes out.
There's no manipulation. When there's no
manipulation,
everything is inside.
So that's it. That's Google.
So this is the paradox of creation.
You're with me? Everybody's with me or
not?
Make sense?
The only problem is that a lot of people
say
nonsense
Okay.
That's even worse.
That's even worse. When you use truth to
cover up your lies, oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. At least if you're using lies to
cover up your lies, it's fair. But I
don't know if there was ever a liar who
didn't use truth to cover up his lies.
Actually says the
right cold water shaker needs a little
MS. There's a little expression in
Zohar.
That Kush the Koi shaker like Koi and
you always have to put in a little Kush
the little MS into the shaker.
Because why? Why? Every lie has truth.
Why? Because lie on its own has no
shaker
has no legs.
So you need to give it some
some truth will be there.
Manipulated exploited even communism. We
love talking about the Soviet Union.
It's one of the biggest lies of history
and it lasted 70 years. Still lasting.
But for 70 years, it was the most one of
the most powerful forces in the world.
All based on lies. But there's truth,
little truth.
Quality, that's a beautiful truth. We're
all one.
Where
do you get such words?
You tell a Jewish 19-year-old kid, yeah?
Label Bernstein Leon Trotsky, the world
is going to be one.
It's exciting.
Even if you have to murder 20 million
people, so what? The main like somebody
was say what is what somebody once said,
"BLOOD WILL BE SPILLED, BUT THERE WILL
be unity."
Exactly. The message of
a complete lie that cost 50 million
lives, if not more.
And destroyed people psychologically for
generations, even those who survived.
You can ask Russians, Russian Jews.
And never mind the millions of Americans
who were who were who were sold on on
the Soviet Union. Stalin died in 1953,
yeah?
Millions of people went by the coffin,
they were weeping, they were sobbing.
They were sobbing for one of the most
evil tyrants in history, maybe the most.
They were sobbing, right?
You remember when Stalin died?
The sun What do they call him? The sun
of the
I'm telling you the whole damn thing.
I'm just kidding.
It's a sickness.
So, the A she essentially is all iron,
but he doesn't feel it. He is all
independent, but he feels the all.
That's the paradox in the mind.
Let's finish here the vote.
I'm sorry, you wanted to say something?
Ain't no good without bad, and ain't no
bad without good.
That's why you should stick to the
Shiva.net.
That was just a commercial.
No, no, it's a very important idea.
People get manipulated very easily in
this world. I miss.
They hear about the year, about the
year, this one about the year, this one
about the year. And it's nice, it's
beautiful stuff. How do you know
something is emes?
Every day
it feels better.
Feels better doesn't mean it doesn't
challenge you. Can challenge you, but it
it it it's You know it's emes.
The more mature you become, the more
emes. The more open you become, the more
emes. The more healthy you become, the
more emes. Sheker is the other way. The
more healthy you become, the more
sheker. The more sober you become, the
more sheker. The more mature you become,
the more sheker. The more developed you
become, the more sheker. The more
CONFIDENT YOU BECOME, YOU REALIZE, "Oh
my god, he sold me the Brooklyn Bridge."
With emes, for current, the more healthy
you become, the more emes it is.
There's two types of leaders also.
There's leaders, if you're weak, they're
amazing. They'll take care of you.
And there's leaders that strong people,
the stronger you are, the more you'll
you'll you'll you'll you'll accept his
leadership.
You see the difference? One leader is
based on manipulation. So, if you're
broken and weak and for hackt and for
drudelt and for wundert, I'll take care
of you.
The 5 years later, you become a healthy
person, you're like, "This is a crazy
cult."
There's other leaders, they're real.
They're not here to manipulate. So, what
happens? The stronger you become, the
healthier you become, the more you're
you're you're you're you have reverence.
Cuz it's not based on on manipulation.
On the contrary, it's based on truth, on
helping people bring out their their
deepest their deepest potentials.
The difference is one wants to replace
your identity, and one wants you to help
you bring out your identity.
Even if it's not your money, some people
don't want money, they want your soul.
It's much worse.
If you want your mon- you want my money,
fine, you're a businessman.
Everybody wants your money, you know?
Who doesn't want your money? Apple
doesn't want your money? Google doesn't
want your money, Facebook doesn't want
your money, the grocery store doesn't
want your money, IRS doesn't want your
money. Everybody wants your money.
As long as they say it, as long as
somebody says I'm from the IRS, yeah?
Cuz I'm the head. If he wants your soul,
it's much more dangerous.
Mhm.
What did the guy What did the Malachim
tell Avraham Avinu?
Ten li hanefesh.
Take the money, I want the soul.
Ten li hanefesh, give me your soul.
Give me your soul.
I don't care if you have the money, I
want your soul. You know why? Cuz if I
have your soul, I'll have your money,
too.
If I got your soul, I'll have your
money. I'm not worried.
If I have your money, it doesn't mean I
have your soul.
I told you once the words from the
Kidushei Harim, no?
To Shma beni musar avicha v'al titosh
toras imecha.
Listen to the musar of your father and
don't neglect the Torah of your mother.
So, he said, why by your father does it
say listen and musar? And by your mother
it doesn't say listen to the musar of
mother, it says don't neglect the Torah
of your mother.
So, he says toras imecha is not the
Torah your mother teaches you. It's the
Torah you learned in your mother's womb.
Shma beni musar avicha v'al titosh You
don't have to learn it. V'al titosh
Don't let go.
You don't have to learn it, you know it.
Al titosh toras imecha the Torah of your
mother. And that's not musar, it's
Torah.
Musar is what I tell you. Torah is what
you know from inside, you know it from
the womb.
I don't have to tell it to you, huh?
So, musar avicha is your father gives
you musar.
Toras imecha is much deeper. Toras
imecha is the Torah that's in your DNA.
When God created you with his DNA, with
your DNA, his DNA, that's toras imecha.
You know it in your DNA.
So, how do you know something is real
Torah?
Your DNA says, "Yeah, I know. I knew
this."
Whenever you hear real Torah, you never
hear anything new. You hear something
that you already learned in your
mother's womb. If you're hearing
something new, it's not Torah. It's
selling a boat.
I know that you could hear new
information. You're learning cubits. You
may have not learned it before. I'm not
talking about the data. I'm talking
about the energy. If it's real Torah,
your soul knew it already.
If it's fake Torah, you never knew it.
You understand? Real Torah resonates. It
may challenge you to your core.
It may
trigger you. That's good. That's the
triggers are not bad always. Triggers
are sometimes good. It means there's
resistance. Other than that
but trigger doesn't mean it doesn't
resonate. Trigger means it does
resonate.
That's why it's important for people to
trust themselves.
I'm now going to say real heresy.
We sometimes live in a culture where
people are taught the less you trust
yourself, the better it is, right?
Some of you grew up that way.
Never trust yourself. You're evil. Yeah,
it's a horror is evil. Your brain is
evil. She'll be evil.
And therefore, never trust yourself.
Trust me.
They always say, "Trust me."
Trust me who you should marry. Trust me
how you should think. Trust me we Trust
me on everything. And good people
sometimes
can get very wounded.
There's a lot of good names for it. The
main thing is don't trust yourself cuz
you're horrible.
I'll protect you.
And it's not always I should say this.
I'm not It's not with bad intentions
necessarily. Some people mean well.
You're vulnerable and I'll protect you.
But that's not the ultimate truth of
Yiddishkeit. Don't lose of Yiddishkeit
is you have to trust yourself? How do I
know? God trusts you for heaven's sake.
I'm not going to trust you.
Hashem created you. He gave you He
trusts you. So, I'm not going to trust
you?
I You're going to become more from than
Hashem? Hashem decided you should have
choices. I'm going to say no, I take
away people's choices.
Where do I get such a chutzpah?
We have to train people to trust
themselves. What does it mean to trust
yourself? Doesn't mean trust every
mishigas. If I'm an addict, yeah, I have
to learn how to be very suspicious.
All of us have
traumas. All of us have saharas. That's
why you need real people to give you
feedback. We all have blind spots. We
all have confirmation bias. We're only
gay but like we learned before, sinas
chinam.
But that doesn't mean not to trust
yourself. It means to know how to
distinguish between different parts of
yourself.
Of course you have to trust yourself cuz
if you don't trust yourself, you know
you can't serve Hashem. You're like a
zombie. You serve them and I trust you.
You have to trust yourself.
You have to trust your body. You have to
trust your soul. You have to trust your
mind. You have to have people who
support you and give you feedback cuz we
all make mistakes. And we can all have
serious blind spots. That's true. I say
but anyone who teaches you not to trust
yourself and to surrender,
run the other direction.
Y'all have no come.
It resonates what I'm saying? It
resonates the way I am. Oh, they're
going to do it anyway.
They're going to do it anyway.
So, that's a good question.
Not teaching children anything is also
teaching them something.
You have to realize.
So, that's what Torah and mitzvahs is,
teaching them what life is about.
That's exactly what it is.
And it's modeling values that I cherish
very deeply and I believe in.
But ultimately children have to choose
when they get older. Everyone has pure
and that's the beauty of it.
I may I may experience pain from my
child's choice.
But that pain is the price of people
making choices.
Hashem could have created all of us like
robots
and we would have been perfect. You
know, my computer never sins, you know
that.
Besides when it gets a virus
and it decides to die.
A virus very good a virus.
I can even program my computer when I
walk in in the morning to say Rabbi YY
good morning, I love you.
But it's meaningless, right?
But Hashem didn't create us as robots. I
have to make choices. You have to make
choices every day, every moment.
That's a gift, that's not a curse. The
Rambam says in Hilchos T'shuva Perek K
that our closest
Where do we reflect Hashem most?
In the fact that we have choice.
So choice is a divine gift.
And that itself I want to tell my child.
You're going to grow up, you're going to
make choices and that's the beauty of a
human being. Because when you choose,
you actually become the most divine. God
is free and he wants us to be free.
Now of course choice comes with
consequences.
And sometimes I could make a choice that
I'm pained about and sometimes you could
make a choice that I'm pained about.
But the way to help is not by
uh eliminating from a person the ability
to choose.
It's from inspiring, from modeling, from
being connected.
So, if there's a lifestyle, Torah
mitzvahs, the divine blueprint for life,
is a life that's filled
with goodness, with morality, with
proper boundaries. I want to be bequeath
that to my child.
In a way, though,
that the child can be touched by it, can
be affected by it, not in a way of
coercion.
In a way of modeling.
And there comes a point when your child
reaches a certain age that control
anyway doesn't work.
Right?
People have to realize that. It's not
easy for people to realize.
You could force your 7-year-old to do
something.
But remember, if the whole reason he's
doing it is because you're forcing him,
there's going to be a day where you
won't be able to force him. Maybe when
he's 13. 13, you'll still force him.
You're going to threaten him not to make
a bar mitzvah. Fine. But 14, 14, you
still force him.
But 15, there's going to be a point
where he's going to say, "Tati,
genig." Right? What do you do then?
What do you do then?
So, forget it. If the relationship was
based on coercion, at that moment it's
going to be very bitter. Cuz when he
detaches, he's going to go very far,
like a rubber band. You pull the too
hard, when the rubber band fly You ever
still did with a rubber band? You ever
you played? Huh? You ever tried to hurt
your sister?
When you pull that rubber band very
hard, you know what happens? As long as
you're holding on to it, beautiful. But
at some point the rubber band is going
to
pull away, and it's going to go very
far.
Be careful.
Does it mean you shouldn't hold on to a
rubber? Of course you should hold on to
the rubber band. But you want to hold on
to the rubber band and embrace the
rubber band and encourage the rubber
band and inspire the rubber band. I
don't mean to call children rubber
bands, but you get my point.
Make sense what I'm saying? So, I want
to be The mitzvah of chinuch is a mighty
mitzvah. What's the mitzvah of chinuch?
Mitzvah of chinuch to inspire and infuse
your children with Shamayim, with
with
with values
that you believe and you see are blessed
values to live by. But the focus of this
education is that it should become
yours.
It should be something that you will
own, that you will will one day make
your own because if not
what am I giving you?
I'm just telling you that I want this.
That's not going to be enough.
I want you to want it.
May Rashi says.
Everyone
clutches the
but listen to the of the
make sure you educate him in a way that
when he gets older he's going to
continue.
How do you do that?
If the whole model is this is what I
want that I don't care about you fine,
but I do care about me. So have a good
day.
You have a
of a village.
Somebody once asked him how you your
children.
So he said learn from how God created
the world. Watch a chicken with her
eggs.
So they said
you ever watched a chicken with eggs? A
chicken lays an egg almost every day,
right?
If you look at it so if you spent time
in a farm.
From that chick from that egg if the egg
was fertilized by a male
a new chick is going to come out, right?
It takes 21 days. She has to sit on the
egg for 21 days, 3 weeks. They're not
sorry.
She sits on the egg for 3 weeks.
And then the chick comes out. She has to
warm the egg. If she doesn't sit on it
the chick won't be able to develop. It's
going to freeze unless you have an
incubator. Today you could do it through
incubators, but the way I created the
chicken sits on the egg. If the chicken
sits hard on the egg, what happens?
Cracks.
If the chicken remains removed from the
egg, it doesn't warm. So, what does the
chicken do? The Rebbe Nachman gave the
chicken feathers.
Like a mink coat.
So, the chicken doesn't sit on the egg
as
with the gunts
The chicken hovers over the egg and the
wet the feathers warm the egg. The exact
amount of pressure that the egg should
feel warmth
but not too much pressure that the egg
should crack. So, Rebbe Nachman of
Breslov said, "Study chickens and eggs
and you'll know how to educate your
children."
Huh?
It's Kaminetzky head.
Rebbe Nachman of Breslov.
You have to warm the egg and you can't
warm the egg if you squeeze it
cuz then it cracks. There's nothing left
to it. Some eggs crack. There's no
chick. There's a dead chick.
YOU HAVE TO WARM IT. SO, THE chicken
said, "No, let me just let THE EGG DO
ITS OWN THING." If you let the egg do
its own thing, a chick won't come out.
We live in a difficult world. We live in
a in a in a challenging world. That's
why chinuch is so important.
Most important thing I want to help my
child understand himself or herself.
Understand how to deal with their
emotions, how to deal with their
conflicts, how to deal with their
struggles.
That should be a major part of education
in schools and yeshivas in the early
years.
In fact, today, you don't need school so
much for information.
Information you have much more outside
of school.
Right?
What you really need school is
attachment
and learning how to deal with yourself.
Of course, information also, but but you
want to help children learn how to deal
with themselves.
How did we get into this?
Ah, the chinuch.
Let's just finish the paragraph.
Remember it's 2 minutes.
So now let's conclude. So Yesh Meayin
has an incredible paradox.
On one hand
there's a
means there's a remoteness where the
Yesh doesn't experience the Ayin.
The Ayin creates the Yesh in a way that
the Yesh doesn't feel it. On the other
hand
they can't get closer.
The
is constantly recreating the Nivirah.
Okay, my share cost of
it's of my eye. So I said earlier the
Madrish teaches that your words you hear
stand in the heaven.
The
Yesh Meayin
is my eye.
It brings out both elements the paradox.
The paradox comes from one that it's
Yesh Meayin.
Because it's Yesh Meayin on one hand
for the Yesh to exist the Ayin has to be
concealed in the Yesh.
Cuz if the Ayin would be manifested in
the Yesh what would happen?
There'd be no Yesh. It would just be
infinity.
On the other hand for Yesh MEAYIN TO
HAPPEN THE AYIN has to be not just
intimate with the Yesh but the Ayin is
the Yesh.
SO THE YESH MEAYIN
IS MY EYE.
It's my eye.
It brings out the paradox. That's the
Yesh Meayin.
On one hand you would think it's so
remote and the other hand it can't get
closer.
It is not like that. It
is the feels the
You know why the feels the
because the won't get nullified by
feeling the Ayin.
Because the is relative to the ill
Allah. If the yesh feels the iron
there's no yesh anymore.
If the Allah feels the iller there's an
Allah because the Allah pre-existed
there before. The yesh
could only exist because the iron is
concealed. The Allah can exist with the
revelation of the iller.
Why can the Allah exist no
like emotions and awareness? It's like
the apple tree and the seed. It's not a
steer to the seed. It's a development of
the seed.
On the other hand because of that the
iller doesn't have to be close to the
Allah. The iller can even disappear and
there's still an Allah.
Yesh may iron is a
paradox. You tell what he's saying.
This is bottom of looking behind.
Yesh may the paradox. If the iron was
present
there's no yesh.
The
of the yesh is that there's a there's a
hellum not like the iller of Allah.
Cuz the whole of the yesh is the iron.
And if the iron gets revealed so it's
all in sight. There's no yesh.
So the yesh requires the iron to be on
the other hand
if there's no iron there's no YESH EVEN
FOR A SECOND. EVERY MOMENT THE YESH is
called cool as yesh may iron.
Huh?
How do you deal with the paradox? So the
most saying is saying here that this is
by
he says he started off yesh was a
pliers.
This is what creates a void of the sham
with simcha.
Why does it create a void of the sham
with simcha?
Because it takes the darkest moment and
turns it into
a moment in which there's absolute
intimacy. There's no such a thing as
distance.
There's no such a thing you're distant.
You're alone. You're neglected. You're
abandoned. You're remote.
It's not just God is holding your hand.
It's much deeper than holding your hand.
It's your very very experience is
divine. There's no detachment. It's not
two separate realities.
All the characters in my daydream,
they're all me.
Nobody is a separate from me, ever.
There's no separation. Those guys in my
daydream are me. That's me.
They're not separate.
There's no separation whatsoever.
What do you mean? I'm a yesh.
That's exactly the nukuda, and that's
why there's no separation.
The
Put it this way.
The degree of concealment represents the
degree of closeness.
It's so far because it's so close.
Beca
Because there's no yesh outside of ayin,
so if the ayin would be revealed, there
would be no yesh.
Cuz there's no yesh outside of ayin. BUT
BECAUSE OF THAT, THE AYIN IS ALWAYS
MAKING THE YESH.
AGAIN,
because there's no yesh outside of ayin,
so if the ayin would be manifested,
if the ayin would be manifested, there
could be no yesh.
CUZ THERE'S NO YESH OUTSIDE OF AYIN.
END OF THE HAKAZA.
The yesh is ayin. It's a lukus.
So if the ayin would be revealed
as ein sof, there's no yesh. So the ayin
has to be completely concealed. On the
other hand, there's no yesh outside of
ayin. So the ayin is always creating it.
May ayin be yesh. So he says, "Zois yesh
be a playus." This is the pell of yesh
may ayin. This is the briya, how the
briya works.
So the moment you're experiencing your
yesh as meaning your separateness, what
is that really?
All you're really experiencing is the
koach haboreh to recreate it every
single moment.
Uh-huh.
Okay.
Have a beautiful day. May Hashem will
resume tomorrow 7:00 Tuesday morning
7:45 a.m.
And tomorrow 9:30 a.m. will be the
women's class in this room. You could
tell your wives or daughters or
relatives. Thank you. Have a beautiful
day.
So he says emotions is ill of all of
them say so.
That's it.
We don't make ash me out.
We make ash me out.
I shall make ash me out.
The world is ash me out, the whole
existence.
A father who wants his kid to always be
dependent on him.
So we have fagel in the nest.
What does it do to the chicks? Go fly
after a few weeks. Get out of here. Why?
I want you to have wings. Imagine a
mother says, "No, no, no, no, you stay
in the nest or I will not I'll take care
of you."
That's not a mother.
A mother sends her out. Go here give you
take your wings and fly. I'll help you.
I'll encourage you that you need
encouragement the first time they jump
off a cliff they fly.
But they but they have to go.
Lekh lekha, got to go.
Bifnei da ba avand.
Avanda skashlus covered.
Bittle.
Fakerta emes rebbe.
What's the function of a moyach? To to
to to turn the body into a robot fakert.
That every chelek of the guf should
function.
The heights, the fists, the hands,
that's the the success of a moyach. Not
that everybody should be paralyzed and
I'll do everything fakert.
That's not a good brain.
Some sugar in the moyach. The moyach
wants everybody to bring out its koiches
bimiluah.
That's a real moyach.
Fakert as a rebbe.
Is da sach agresive a bittle.
Also emes.
Stach sedusha word.
It's a production of word. Maybe I build
a word. Says in Pirkei Avot. My dear
Rabbi come my dear shamayim.
Yeah?
You know the title? I said it.
The clip went viral.
The murder that you have from your Rabbi
is going to be to the same degree of his
murder shamayim.
For taste.
It's not a It's not a mitzvah. It's a
prediction.
My dear Rabbi, you know how much you you
going to have from your Rabbi come my
dear shamayim. Exactly
to the degree a
How much you you should In other words,
it's like a mirror.
His year of shamayim will be mirrored in
your year of him.
If he's full with year of shamayim,
you'll be full of year.
Because then it's not year from him.
It's year of shamayim.
It's It's It's He's It's a mirror of
year of shamayim.
If his year of shamayim is a bit of a
little bit high, your year of him is
going to be the exactly the same.
It's a very powerful word.
Because it explains why my dear Rabbi
come my dear shamayim. Why my dear Rabbi
come my dear shamayim? Was he as they
used to?
No, it's Whatever his year of shamayim
is.
If his year of shamayim is year of
shamayim, they'll be my dear Rabbi. If
not, not. That's it. You don't have to
worry.
It'll come out.
For taste.
Straight and tight as kind of middle of
Rabbi Shimon. I lost my dear Shimon.
You got a plan with Shimon till above
Shimon to
Yeah?
He said to that Shimon may any year of
Messiah. He's my mouth of the year of
Shimon from the above Shimon to
So, the year of shamayim is going to be
by Messiah in the time of the Google.
That was the year of shamayim of the
above Shimon to
When somebody has that level of year of
shamayim, You feel it. So, you have a
unit from him cuz it's not unit from
him. So,
after
we are here, yeah?
This type of this
You can't make these things up. Or you
have it or you don't have it. You can't
force somebody to do it. Be afraid of me
unless I'm a tyrant.
If somebody's a dictator, then you could
force people to be afraid of you. But if
not,
either they have you or they don't have
you. You know, be afraid of me. I'm
fine. It's not uh We would be with a
Harvard. Harvard, too. I'm saying even
you. Real you you can't force unless
it's dread. it.
Right?
The Vilna Gaon writes a doubt that
writes it also in the Vilna Gaon also
writes it.
It's a rotten kibble of a lion.
So, he says there's Malukah and there's
Memshalah.
A marshal is a dictator, a dictator.
A Malekh is Malchut Berotzei Kiblo Alav.
If you don't coordinate a Malekh
Berotzei, he's not a Malekh. He's a
marshal.
He may rule with an iron fist, but he's
not a Malekh. It's a different A Malekh
Beloy Am.
Malchut is something that you have to be
chosen Berotzei.
If you're not chosen, you'll always know
if people didn't want you, you're never
a Malekh. You're a dictator. And that's
why dictators are so insecure cuz they
know that they're not leaders.
So, they go crazier.
They go crazier to control everybody cuz
they have to compensate for the void of
feeling that they're not leaders.
They're fake. They're fake news.
So, they go crazy.
They'll suppress
every every iota of independence because
cuz they want to prove to themselves
that they're leaders and nobody
disagrees with them. And the more they
do it, the more empty they feel. A
Malekh is for carrots. Malchut Berotzei
Kiblo Alav. He's a real leader.
He probably didn't even want it. They
wanted it.
I They wanted it.
He didn't want it.
Moshe didn't want it. The Hebrew
children is Moshe, yeah?
The rabbit didn't want it.
Also, that's about the Bal Shem Tov. You
know the letter, yeah? The Bal Shem Tov
was told by Ahia Shiloni because he did
something wrong. He's going to get a
punishment. What's the punishment?
That he has to be revealed.
For some people, that's not a
punishment.
For some people, they'll fight with
their brother, they'll kill the whole
world to become a rabbit. But for the
Bal Shem Tov, it was a punishment.
He didn't need it. Moshe didn't They
don't need it. I don't need it. He
didn't need it. He didn't need need the
validation. He didn't need the cupboard.
He didn't need the real estate. So, why
should he be a rabbit?
It was a punishment. You understand the
difference? It's a different thing here.
You can't fake these things.
I can somebody came to speak to me.
From a particular Hasidic community.
So, I asked him there there's over there
there's there's two rabbits. I asked him
where he goes.
So, he said he sends his kids to
to this particular one.
I said, "Why him?"
He tells me because he's a gangster.
And today, you need to be a gangster.
And I'm thinking to myself,
so you're sending your kids to a rabbit
and you're calling him a gangster.
It was very sad. Huh?
What?
And I felt bad. He didn't even realize.
I'm saying it's pathetic, you know?
That's what he feels.
I don't know the reality. I'm not
judging. I'm just saying I realized
that, you know, it's a different level
of a rabbit and a different level of a
Hasid.
Okay.
It's locker rubber.
